I have merged the article Telmarine into this one. aliceinlampyland 11:49, 1 February 2006 (UTC).
Telmar is also the world's largest media planning service provider. www.telmar.com. The word was originally derived from "telemarketing" and was reduced to make it easier to say and remember. This was before the word was used to talk about "telemarketing" as a phone approach to sales.

The following was removed to this talk page awaiting verifiable references:
Citations should be added to this suggestion which is outside the body of common knowledge related to the work.
In addition, it has been removed to this talk page until a consensus of editors ascertain whether it has any meaningful relevance to the article. Recall that the article is about the fictional place Telmar, and not about the film adaptation of Prince Caspian or its cast-members. Further, the principle cast-members to not appear to satisfy this claim and it is a puzzle as to why minor or unnamed characters are the subject of any encyclopedic discussion. DvonD ( talk) 13:32, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
This article is currently really confusing: it says that Telmar was first colonized by Calormenes, who then came to Narnia during a famine, but then it also says Telmar was colonized by the 12 human castaways. I haven't seen any evidence anywhere else that Calormenes were involved at all--I re-skimmed Prince Caspian last night and found no mention of that. So I think that sentence in the article here is probably just wrong, but excising it would require reorganizing the paragraph, and I don't have any good sources of info about Telmar other than the book itself, which may not be the last word. So I'm leaving it alone, but it would be great if someone with access to Narnia scholarship materials could clean up this discrepancy. -- Elysdir ( talk) 06:24, 14 June 2008 (UTC)
I agree; I will change this paragraph and remove the Calormene settlement section if there is no objection EyeBall67 10 November 2008 —Preceding undated comment was added at 01:51, 11 November 2008 (UTC).
Why does the flag of Telmar look like the German eagle during the Weimar Republic? Is this a coincidence or did someone want to draw paralleles? -- Orthographicus ( talk) 21:12, 3 September 2011 (UTC)
The information about the film needs to be in its own section as it is in the other Narnia articles. LloydSommerer ( talk) 12:22, 12 November 2014 (UTC)
@ Elphion: Since the relationship between Telmar and Narnia (country) is very unclear without this description, I added "By conquest, the land of Telmar is roughly coextensive, with the former and later country of Narnia."
As this seems obvious to me from the article (as a whole) and/or the books, can you tell me which part of my edit you object to and in what way. For example, do you think it may have been by means other than conquest? We can then try to reword in a way that we are both happy with. tahc chat 21:58, 3 March 2016 (UTC)
The result of the move request was: moved. Number 5 7 21:58, 11 March 2016 (UTC)
Telmar → Telmarines – because the article is only about the people who came from Telmar, and not about Telmar itself (e.g. no scene in the books takes place there). tahc chat 22:37, 3 March 2016 (UTC)
@ Tahc: I removed the refimprove template, as I believe the article is now adequately sourced. Since you have reinstated it, it would help if you would tag things that you think need references. (or explain here.) -- Elphion ( talk) 23:17, 3 March 2016 (UTC)
Support this request. If no rationale is provided, the tag should be removed, as it appears to now have been. Andrewa ( talk) 04:58, 11 March 2016 (UTC)
